Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wealth and Beauty: A Poem Read Before the Phi Beta Kappa Society in Cambridge, July 19, 1855 There are two natures in the mould of man, Two worlds of glory sleep within the span Of the frail dome, whose heaven-lit arches hold Whatever hands have done, or tongues have told; The world of Wealth, - of all the conquered Earth Yields to her Master´s comfort or his mirth, The sweet results of sore and sweating toil From field and forest wrung, from sea and soil; The world of Beauty, - shapes sublimely wrought From the rich ores of Passion and of Thought, Immortal banquets of the hungry heart, The mild majestic miracles of Art!
